9-10k for a kit installed and tuned on a stock motor running about 6-8lbs depending on the kit. that for high 300's -low 400's and if you want more than that you are going to be spending 15-25.

Expensive hobby

Good luck with your decision!

Hahah~ Good idea~! Here is one of the questions...


1. What is a blow off valve?

a. It's a sound effect device.
b. It regulates boost.
c. When TB is closed, it alleviates excess pressure in intake pipes to prevent turbo surge.
d. It's a valve to prevent your engine from blowing up.

All I know is how much to cook a baby. 1/2 tank of propane if it's on the rotisserie. And that's a fully gutted baby at room temp.

Read the stickies in F/I, if you don't know what 6-8psi means I hope you have the money for a rebuild. Good luck.
With you 100%!!! Quick story... back in '05 when I first got my Z I wanted to do some "light" mods. Only intended to do the suspension, so I'm in the shop with a few other people and I'm discussing my plans for the car when I say "I only want to do the suspension". Immediately everyone stops...looks at me ...and busts out laughing!!!! When I ask what they are laughing at I'm told...."YOU have no idea what you are getting into". Truer words have never been spoken!!

So hypothetically speaking, if I were to shell out the 20k, how would my car compare to other good track cars, i.e. 911, GTR, Z06, etc?
